2,3,4,5,6-Pentafluoroaniline finds it uses in the preparation of pentafluorophenylammonium triflate, an efficient catalyst for esterification and thioesterification. It is also used in the synthesis of various titanium complexes having two anionic [N, O-] bidentate salicylaldiminato ligands.
2,3,4,5,6-Pentafluoroaniline forms metal-drug complexes, cis-Pt-(2,3,4,5,6-pentafluoroaniline)2-Br2 which has been tested against the promastigote forms of Leishmania donovani.
